Making available a selection of some of the most significant recent work
on the Tudor monarchy, this text provides a sense of the issues that
have preoccupied historians, and of the ways in which the traditional
concerns of power and politics have been enlarged by growing attention
to less conventional facets of the subject: to the wider agenda of
Renaissance statecraft and the phenomenon of female rule, for instance,
or to the interdependence of court and localities and the significance
of frontiers and borderlands in the shaping of Tudor political culture.
Particular attention is given to recent seminal contributions that have
shifted the traditional focus, but the debates in the field that
continue to fascinate historians and students are also represented. With
full introductory sections by John Guy, the volume looks in turn at the
broad themes of "Renaissance Monarchy", personality and politics, and
polity and government.
